ABOUT
I was raised in nearby Fayetteville, GA and graduated from Fayette Christian School in 1999. I served in youth ministry for 7+ years before transitioning to church planting in September 2011. While saved at an early age, my relationship with Christ was really deepened through some key relationships I developed in college. In addition, I was blessed to serve on staff at Snowbird Wilderness Outfitters in Andrews, NC where the Lord used the staff to grow and mature me greatly. I was also privileged to meet my wife while working at Snowbird in 2007. In the fall of 2010 I was hired at Trinity Christian School. My desire is to model to others an example of working hard and serving faithfully within the church.

About
I was raised in Williamson, GA and graduated from Griffin Christian School. Although I had been raised around the gospel, I was not genuinely born again until 2006. That same year I recognized my desire to be involved in church ministry and/or foreign missions. In 2009, I married my best friend, and we decided to remain in the U.S. to help plant Sovereign Hope. In 2014, I recorded my first worship album entitled "This Is My Hope" and began working as a Bible teacher at Trinity Christian School. God continues to pour out grace and has put "a new song in my mouth - a song of praise to Him." It is my prayer that "many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord." (Psalm 40:3)

ABOUT
I'm originally from Birmingham, AL where I received a business degree from the University of Montevallo. Go Falcons! While my degree has served me well, the best thing about Montevallo was my involvement in the Baptist Campus Ministry. After surrendering my life to Christ during my freshman year, I began serving at the BCM. Through discipleship and accountability, a solid faith foundation was formed that continues to serve me today. Not to mention the fact that the BCM is where I met my lovely bride! In 2010 I began working at the Chick-fil-a home office where I aim to serve those around me and be a part of the gospel transformation in the lives of my co-workers.

ABOUT
I was born and raised in Tyrone, Georgia but now live in Senoia with my family, Renee, Noah and Patti. I graduated from Sandy Creek High School in 2000, and from Clayton State University in 2009. We joined Sovereign Hope Church in 2015. God called me to serve as an elder a few years later, and I was ordained in 2019. In 2022, our family moved to Senoia to be closer to our church family. By God’s grace he uses the roles of elder, husband, father, neighbor, and employee to sanctify me and conform me into the image of His Son.
